Amazing Villa in a lovely location

Just returned from a week at Villa Kefalos and I have to say we had a fantastic time. From the initial enquiry Jim replied to every query we had in quick time. The villa itself is lovely and I would say the photos don't do it justice.

There are some great taverners near by and Jim was always on hand with directions. Jim and Denise even came and changed all the towels and bedding which is the first time we have had this on a weeks stay. We have stayed in around 10 villas over the years and this was by far the best and the first time I have felt like I must leave a review.

We are already looking at flights for next year so Jim I am sure we will be in touch soon. Thanks Dan, Natalie, Jack and Harry

Beautiful Villa - Quiet Location

Beautiful villa - Spacious, modern, clean, well maintained and very well equipped along with a fantastic pool.

The villa is screened by bushes from the villas either side and affords a reasonable degree of privacy.

You can walk to the port of Pessada in about 15 minutes (all down hill) where there is a taverna at the bottom which does lovely food and has a great view of the bay. There are other tavernas but they are a short drive away. However there weren't any that we found disappointing.

When driving or by taxi we particularly enjoyed the Olive Lounge at Lourdas (taxi €40 return, 10-15 mins by car) and Gefiri at Trapazaki (€30 return, 10 mins by car). Also try Casa Grec in Argostoli and see the turtles in the bay they are usually always around the fishermen that are there.

Jim and Denise are lovely people who provide useful information.

We hope you enjoy Villa Kefalos - We did!

Owner's Response: Thanks very much for the kind review Helen & Mark. It was a real pleasure meeting you both. We hope to see you again some time.

Very Nice Villa

Just a few lines for Denise and James and to say thank you for letting us hire your Villa for 11 days. We arrived Sunday afternoon and found the property fairly easily, although We wouldn’t want to be looking for it in the dark as the Villa is off road and down a dirt track and is rather remote, there are several properties in close proximity, these are not a problem as the gardens are fairly well screened. The Villa its self was in a clean and tidy condition with a great pool. All 3 bedrooms were of a good size and everyone found the beds clean and comfortable. There were more than adequate

facilities available, kitchen appliances, sky, washing machine, Radio and Wi Fi. Also the Welcome Pack was also very welcoming.

We tried several of the recommended Tavern a ‘s /Restaurants listed in the Visitors Book and liked the ones up at Castle best, not only for choices and costs but also service. All restaurants that we ate in supplied good quality food. However be warned that if you eat at Waterways the local fish is very expensive.

We toured the island and enjoyed not only the drive’s but some of the small towns and villages that we visited.

Great villa, lovely location

Villa Kefalos is immaculately presented with everything we needed. The first floor bedrooms have a wonderful terrace with views over to Zakynthos. The pool is very good, the infinity structure keeps it perfectly clear & clean everyday. We loved the beautiful little beach at Pessada, go round the rocks for the best bit with glassy sea, sand & rocks for jumping in. There's a little cafe above the port 'Sunset' where we had a great meal of souvlaki, with lovely views & loads of other good beaches & tavernas within a short drive. Despite the Greek economy being all over the news there were no problems at all. Kefalonia was as wonderful & welcoming as ever & Jim & Denise went out of their way to make sure we had a good time.

Great villa. Everything we wanted for our family

We had a great experience from booking, through to leaving our holiday villa. James and Denise (who own the villa) were very helpful both before and during our stay. James answered all our queries promptly. The villa was immaculately presented on arrival and really well equipped. The pool and gardens were very well maintained, in fact the cleanest pool we have experienced. James and Denise left us to our holiday but couldn't do enough for us, whenever we needed help. Bedding and towels were changed twice in two weeks, and six additional towels were provided for the beach or loungers.

Important to note that despite the current economic situation, there were no issues that we noticed. Supermarkets were fully stocked, no problems with fuel availability (1.65 euro/litre at time of writing).

We would highly recommend this villa for a peaceful family holiday - but if you have a query....just speak to James and Denise!

Villa Kefalos is ideally situated in this tranquil village. It is close enough to the Islands capital of Argostolli, the popular resort of Lassi, with soft sandy beaches, with clear turquoise water. A short drive to St Georges castle & the Islands Mount Ainos National Park, yet far enough away as a retreat to enjoy the amenities of this luxury villa. So whether you want to explore the Island or just enjoy a lazy day, chilling around the pool catching rays, Villa Kefalos is a great base to start your holiday! Villa Kefalos offers a complementary welcome pack containing essential fresh food and drinks, on arrival..
